That's good input Dave. But it kind of puts me in a 'questioning corner'. Do you believe it is wrong to serve on jury duty then? If not, then how do you reconcile that with the verses you've shared?If you are in congregational leadership in some capacity - you DO have the authority to judge.
1 Corinthians 5:12b
Do you not judge those who are within the church?
13 But those who are outside, God judges. Remove the wicked man from among yourselves.
1 Corinthians 6:1
Does any one of you, when he has a case against his neighbor, dare to go to law before the unrighteous and not before the saints? 2 Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world is judged by you, are you not competent to constitute the smallest law courts? 3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more matters of this life?
